Fresh limes, stored at room temperature, have a shelf life of no more than one week. The refrigerator increases this time to 10-14 days.
If you have limes in large quantities and you think that you will not be able to consume them all within two weeks, then prepare a delicious and healthy juice.
There are two ways you can store the fruit drink - in the freezer or refrigerator.
If you choose deep freezing - lime juice will stay fresh for several months. To do this, pour the lemon juice into ice cube trays. Once well hardened, you can put the fruit cubes in suitable plastic bags for the camera.
Carefully close the bags and place the lime juice in the freezer. This type of storage allows the drink to stay fresh for three to four months, after which its taste begins to slowly decline.
If you prefer to keep fresh lime juice on hand, keep in mind that its maximum shelf life will be 2 to 3 days. For better storage, pour the drink into an airtight kitchen container. Make sure that the container is tightly closed and no air enters through it. Then place the container in the refrigerator.
